license: split license parsing into oe.license

In addition to moving this functionality to oe.license, makes the string
preparation more picky before passing it off to the ast compilation. This
ensures that LICENSE entries like 'GPL/BSD' are seen as invalid (due to the
presence of the unsupported '/').
